Abstract

A bottomed cylindrical bottle formed of a synthetic resin material through biaxially oriented blow molding, includes a bottom portion of the bottle having a bottom wall portion, the bottom wall portion including a ground portion disposed at an outer circumferential edge portion, a rising circumferential wall portion continuously extending upward so as to be connected to the ground portion from an inside in a bottle radial direction, a movable wall portion protruding from an upper end portion of the rising circumferential wall portion toward the inside in the bottle radial direction, and a recessed circumferential wall portion having a diameter in the bottle radial direction such that the diameter gradually decreases in a direction from an inner end portion of the movable wall portion toward an upper side thereof, an annular recess depressed upward being formed at the movable wall portion in a circumferential direction thereof.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A bottomed cylindrical bottle formed of a synthetic resin material through biaxially oriented blow molding, comprising a bottom portion having a bottom wall portion, the bottom wall portion comprising in a non-decompressed state of the bottle:
a ground portion disposed at an outer circumferential edge portion;
a rising circumferential wall portion continuously extending upward so as to be connected to the ground portion from an inside in a bottle radial direction;
a movable wall portion protruding from an upper end portion of the rising circumferential wall portion toward the inside in the bottle radial direction, the movable wall portion having an annular recess depressed upward in a circumferential direction thereof;
a recessed circumferential wall portion having a diameter in the bottle radial direction such that the diameter gradually decreases in a direction from an inner end portion of the movable wall portion toward an upper side thereof; and
a connecting portion between the rising circumferential wall portion and the movable wall portion,
wherein the annular recess is divided into an apex portion, an outer curved wall connected to the apex portion from an outside in the bottle radial direction, and an inner curved wall connected to the apex portion from an inside in the bottle radial direction,
the inner curved wall gradually extends upward in a direction from the inside to the outside in the bottle radial direction,
the movable wall portion is configured to move upward with the recessed circumferential wall portion around the connecting portion with the rising circumferential wall portion with decompression of the bottle,
an inner portion, disposed closer to the inside in the radial direction than the annular recess of the movable wall portion and the recessed circumferential wall portion, is configured to move upward and around the annular recess with decompression of the bottle,
a first length from the connecting portion to the annular recess in the bottle radial direction is larger than a second length from the annular recess to an inner edge portion of the recessed circumferential wall portion in the bottle radial direction, and
the annular recess remains present in the movable wall portion with decompression of the bottle.

2. The bottle according to claim 1 , wherein the movable wall portion in the non-decompressed state of the bottle, at least at a location other than at the annular recess, has a curved surface protruding downward.

3. The bottle according to claim 1 , wherein the outer curved wall gradually extends downward in a direction from the inside toward the outside in the bottle radial direction.

4. The bottle according to claim 2 , wherein the outer curved wall gradually extends downward in a direction from the inside toward the outside in the bottle radial direction.

5. The bottle according to claim 1 , wherein a rib is formed at the inner portion along with the circumferential direction, and
the rib is formed through biaxially oriented blow molding.
